An Old Indian Legend.

The great contest between the Creek
and Cherokee Indians, which was finally
settled by the grand council Of the famous
''Seven Stumps," in old Tallapoosa. was
yer the possession of this immediate
section, which was then known to be
rich in gold and gave to the river its
name, "Tallapoosa," meaning yellow
sand" II is sai6that a famous '.med-
icine man" Of the Cherokees discovered
q wonderfully rich mine within four
miles Of the 'Seven Stumps," and after
the territory was decided by the council
to belong to the Creeks, he persistently
refused to make known its exact loca-
ton. Old men who were here when
the Indians were gathered up and car
ried away say that the older Indians
vaguely limited at wealth beneath the
earth's surface, but carefully kept the
secret Of its ~location-the medicine

from the Great Spirit that their descend
ants would finally return to possess this
land again, and the earth would keep
her great treasure house locked until
their return.-Tallapoosa Ca Journal.

American authors are now admitted,
even in England. to hold the foremost
rank as writers of short stories, and, in
deed, they seem to deserve tine award
thus made. Alfred de Musset wa q mas
ter in this art, and Daudet has proved
himself one more recently. But Musset's
short stories were almost novelties in
length, compared with the short stories
produced in this country; and Daudet's
hardly possess the range and depth shown
in the tales of Nathaniel Hawthorne, of
Bret Harte, H. H. Boyesen, Mrs. Wy
man, Mrs. Burnett, Sarah Jewett, T. b.
Aldrich and a score Of other men and wo-
men who contribute TO our magazines.
We seem to have developed here a con-
densation and refinement of style, an at
mosphere full of delicate shadings and
significant outlines, which belong to the
finest art. Among English authors of
the present day only Robert Louis Steven
son exhibits these peculiarities in the
same degree, and it may fairly be said
that Stevenson INDUCES in mannerisms in
the use of language Of which our native
writers are seldom guilty.-New York

Basque Method Of Boating Ego.

Dh84uo Uuothoo u Aso8stAhB GBks
''There is reason In roasting eggs" says
an old English proverb, of which few now
understand the meaning. 81 think eggs
are better roasted than boiled" said the
Basque landlady of a country inn to me;
''though I often boil them as being less
trouble" Whereupon ! at once got her
10 roast me some. A smooth place 70
swept on the hearth, not too near the
fire; on this the eggs are deposited, then
gently round them is scraped a little cir
cular wall of hot embers. The cook
busted herself about other work, but in a
few minutes returned. her thumb and
middle finger touch the extreme ends of
the eggs, a dexterous twist, and the egg
wa spinning like q teetotum. That egg
wa done and was at once put into the
folds of a clean, warm, white napkin;
another was tried, but that only wabbled
ungracefully. mot cooked yet" was
the verdict. The embers (braise) are
raked o little closer round it and very
soon il spins as well a. the other and
shares its fate. 1t looks 30 easy and the
eggs never seem to have the least inclina-
ton to move out of their charmed circle;
but let a stranger try, especially if he is

sion, and the usual result is that he is
hopping about the room blowing his
burnt fingers and the egg lies smashed in
the middle of the floor. This is why

A Birds Strange Antics.

The cock Of the rock Is, next to the
crane, the bird of the western hemis-
phere noted for the strangeness Of its
evolutions. When the breeding season
begins ten or twenty of the birds will
form a ring, facing inward. A small
bird takes its place in the center and be-
gins to hop about, toss It's head, Lift It's
wings, and 60 through all the strange
movements possible, which appear to be
watched with great interest by the rest.
When the performer Is thoroughly ex-
hausted he retires to the circle and an
other bird enters the ring, and 10 on,
untii all have been put through their
PAGES, when the pairs probably make
their selection. Often the birds are 30
exhausted after the dances that they can
hardly fly, lying painting on the rocks

What Hermann Saw In iudia.

SLOW does the magic practiced In
Europe compare with that Of India, pro-
fessor?"
European magic is far superior. Ex-
aggerated reports Of the wonderful things
done in India reach us. The larger part
of their tricks are performed in the open
market places, with the help of wicker
baskets and holes in the ground. ! can
go out here in Broadway and cut o hole
in the sidewalk, and perform tricks
which will collect such O crowd that the
cars could not pass through, and they
would not be difficult tricks, either.
Perhaps you have heard Of the story that
a certain magician In India goes out into
the market places and throws q rope into
the air. This rope goes up 90 high
that the upper end disappears in the
clouds. Then the magic maker climbs
up the rope until he also is lost to view.
Just about the time you would naturally
think he was knocking at st. Peters
gate, down comes n Of his legs. The
mate follows In a few moments, followed
by both arms in succession. Then fol.
lows the trunk, and last the head comes
eddying down from somewhere out Of
the infinite. After all the members Of
the body had reached solid ground, they
quickly, and apparently Of their W vo-
lition, gather themselves together, and
the perfect rehabilitated man Is the re-
suit. Then the magician, like the rag
picker, puts his basket under his arm and
silently sneaks away. / kept q bright
lookout for that fellow when I was in In
dia, but / never saw him. Perhaps he
had gone up the rope and stayed there
while I was in India. "-Interview with
Professor Hermann.

In the Senate to-day the principle
bills introduced were: To change the
constitution 80 that members of the Leg
islature be elected every four years. To
amend the charters of the Atlantic &

Air Line Railway. There was debate
on the bill to make an appropriation for

$20noa Ns69te s6e, . A e = .iSEcet inter ilatteessss
was manifested in the proceedings fthe
House. The Journal of yesterdays pro-
ceedings was read. Mr.. Gambler claimed
that he had voted in opposition to the
motion to table the County Government
bill on third reading He was not re-
corded as having voted at all. His vote
was ordered recorded. The Speaker an
nounced that this broke the tie and the
bill would come up again. Mr.. G"rk
made demand for the correction of yes
terday's proceedings by expunging the
second vote of the Speaker on the Rail
way Commission bill. He said that the
vote was in defiance of the rules, and a
usurpation of power. Mr.. Leazar then
took the chair and ruled this demand
out of order. Mr.. York rose to question
of personal privilege on the matter and
was again ruled on; of order.
Speaker Webster took the chair and
made personal explanasian of his &C
ton yesterday, involving his vote both
as Member and Speaker on the Railway
Commission bill. saying that the only
precedent he could find was on his side,
that being in the vote to remove the cap
ital from Brunswick to Wilmington. Mr..
York asked leave 20 enter protest against
the Speakers action. He offered
a resolution expressing it as
the sense of the House that
the Speaker had acted unlawfully
This was referred to the judiciary Com
mittee. Mr.. Pearson moved to recon
slider the vote, bv which the bill passed
second reading.
Favorable report was made on the bill
to create the new county of Richland
County Government bill was made spe.
cial order for next Thursday and the bill
to allow the Atlanta & N. q. Railway to
build branches was made special order
